I can’t believe that after all these years I can read a post, look who posted it and think, I’ve never heard of this person. Then I’ll look how many posts they have and it’s in the thousands or tens of thousands. It happens more frequently than I’d expect. Does this still happen to you?

I spent my entire childhood in a mid sized town. I went all the way through school there. For high school graduation we had two complete rehearsals of lining up in alphabetical order and walking across the stage, to be sure the list they would read matched the bodies in line. We were a class of about 600.

On actual graduation day there were students walking across the stage that I'd never seen nor heard of before.

Yes, I see member names here I'd not noticed before.

Please don't name names or you'll give them a complex.

It happen to me regularly. I just figure my memory is shot.

It happens… I haven’t posted in a while though comment once in a while (health).

Been here quite a while.

All the best.

I’ve been here so long I don’t recognize some of my own posts.

I haven't recognized a name yet in this thread

I recognized four names so far.

Wait, who are y'all?

I have the opposite happen. Zoomed in slightly on my phone e & just seeing the post content. Read something & can sometimes know who posted it.

I'm horrible w/ names so it bugs me when you guys change your avatar (except Orguss).

Are you the mayor of Quahog?

All your names sound the same.

You gotta work your way up there as a long standing established member because it’s the only way to win a karma

Well, as they say, that is the beauty of old age Alzheimer's - you get to make new friends every day!

When you have years in law enforcement and retire, everyone you meet seems vaguely familiar. Now I am vaguely familiar with everyone on SF.

Who are you? When did you get here???

Seriously though, I do it all the time...

Perhaps they are more active in other sections of this forum.
